Gurren Laggan already aired on SiFi channel. Not to mention that CN has already given away all of their good anime.

So Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell, Fullmetal Alchemist, Big O, FLCL, and Moribito ceased to be good somewhere along the way?

A little hard to do when nobody in the United States owns the rights to distribute Sailor Moon.

I meant the good anime that Cartoon Network (not adult swim) used to show, besides, I barely see half of those shows on Adult Swim anymore. And when they do show them, its usually so late at night that i'd rather watch them on the internet or buy the DVDs. As of now, Bleach and Bakugan are the only anime that CN's been good to.

I highly doubt that this is the start (new start) or rather comeback of the 'great Sat. anime lineup' thing that I and i'm sure a few others have been waiting for. Hoping for. Personally I think the whole thing died off long before Toonami ended... They got rid of Naruto... Naruto! Why in the world they decided not to get/try to get Shippuden is beyond me. (Assuming they didn't try. 'Cause if they did it wasn't very hard in my eyes) (though I think they were having problems with their Sat lineups before Naruto was even airing on CN) Surely they don't think this'll rival it. Maybe Shippuden is doing well on X.D, so much so that now they are trying to bring back their viewers. I dunno, I just seriously doubt this is the 'good news' i've been waiting to hear, hoping that I could actually get my Sat's back the way I used to (save AS which has pretty much stayed the same save for when they start screwing around with air times). From what I've heard and seen, though I myself have never seen this show i'm assuming its pretty popular. Whether or not it ranks up there with their previous anime related shows is beyond me but hey, I could be wrong and maybe it will rival Shippuden. Honestly if they were going to try to 'reclaim' Sat's, their doing it both the right and the wrong way. Right in the sense that if its as popular as I think it is, it'll get pretty decent views, but wrong in the sense that.... I wish they would have picked something more interesting Anime cry Thats pretty much all the wrong I can think of... It's not necessarily a wrong choice, I just don't like it Sad . Just seems like a rather boring show (like beyblade or Duel Masters I think it was)

I agree. Why the hell did they get rid of One Piece in the first place!? Evil or Very Mad

I'd prefer it if they put Bakugan on Friday evenings with their other new cartoons. Saturday evenings on CN are just experimental and this is probly another one of those

There is no dimension in which you can debase Bakugan and pretend Sailor Moon is top quality.

Bakugan is, by most definitions of the word, anime. So Bakugan's mere presence on the Saturday night lineup means that it has already brought back anime to the Saturday night lineup. Now, the question of whether more anime will come back is up in the air.

I'd rather Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds or Pokemon aired instead, but I guess I shouldn't complain.
